The day, in a nutshell.
Explore animals native to the southwestern United States and the barnyard. Our planning suggestion: pair a short zoo visit with time in Irvine Regional Park. Paid railroad and pumpkin-patch activities are separate. Listed visits through November 8 follow the published operating schedule; check current closures before leaving.
